It feels like Spring is on its way in spite of what Punxsutawney Phil had to say.
So Grace and I headed outside with a couple of packets of seeds,
A large bag of potting soil,
Two self-watering planters and a shub-ull (shovel).
At first, Grace wasn't too sure about the dirt.
But she quickly got the hang of it.
Soon both containers were nice and full.
Then Grace took a handful of seeds from each packet.
And spread them around in the soil.
She made sure that each tiny seed was covered.
And wiped the dirt off her hands and onto her shirt. Then she asked, "Wats nest?" (What's next?)
She was very excited when I told her that the seeds would eventually grow into flowers.
Ahhh. The joys of Spring with the excitement of a toddler. I love it!
